Hey Mike, which pattern was the most challenging for you to get "right"?
Surprisingly, the Woolly Bugger is kicking my butt... It has been years since I've tried to tie a "full dress" version of this pattern. I tend to use a simplified version for fishing. I wasn't the Bugger to be much of a challenge, but I was wrong...

Hi Rex None were a real challenge ..............just had to make sure that things like tinsel had equal wraps and evenly spaced etc. One comment I did have was that a couple of hackle fibers were trapped in the Quill Gordons
